Final Troops Completed for East Africa

Well, the last of the figures (at least until I decide to buy more) have come off the table for the German East Africa project.These are Sikh Infantry from Brigade Games:

As is usual with their figures, these are both nicely sculpted and cast.

The figures have been painted as the 30th Punjab Regiment, as depicted in Osprey's "Armies in East Africa 1914-1918".I also finished up some command figures from Copplestone Castings:

The two on the left will be my army commander and his assistant, while the two on the right will command my 129th Baluchis. These are rather large figures and appear over sized next to the Brigade figures. I'll put together another post showing how everything in my collection matches up.

Thanks Sam. It's been awhile since I did these and I'm afraid I didn't write down the paints I used. However, I have some new Sikh artillery coming in, so need to figure it out again. I'll go back through my paint drawer this weekend to see if I can get it figured out again, then post the paint list here.
